R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council WORKCOVER CORPORATION The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:16): My question is to the Leader of the Government. Has the minister received any advice from the new chief executive of WorkCover as to whether or not it is the intention of WorkCover Corporation to continue with the monopoly legal services contract that WorkCover currently has and also to continue with the monopoly claims management contract that WorkCover Corporation currently has, or in either case does WorkCover Corporation intend to introduce some element of competition into both the legal services area and the claim management area in relation to WorkCover?

P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister Assisting the Premier in Public Sector Management) (15:17): I have had advice from both the former and previous—in relation to matters that the board is considering, I understand the board is currently considering— The Hon. R.I. Lucas Legislative Council The Hon. R.I. Lucas: The previous CE or the current one? The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY Legislative Council The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY: Well, as I said, both the previous and the current CE in relation to those matters, but it is my understanding that the board still has those matters before it, so it would be inappropriate for me to comment in relation to any contract that is still subject to consideration by the board.
